5. His ears didn’t pick up any sounds coming from Teyla’s angry and hissing lips, because all he could hear was Woolsey’s words relieving you of command, and all he could think was not enough time.
4. His mouth couldn’t stop grinning. He tried to get himself under control, but ended up grinning and smiling and one memorable time, giggling, making everyone attending that meeting watch him with confused expressions/glare. The glaring came from Rodney, of course. The bastard, John thought, grinning. The bastard with the too cute and adorable bed head that was too cute and adorable to not memorialise for life with a photo. Of course, it wouldn’t be seen outside of the team, but Rodney still wouldn’t stop glaring, and John couldn’t stop grinning

Oh, my word. What a splendid and horrible progression. I'll admit I was slow to realize (or really realize) these are in reverse order. Then it was WHAM. Oh, dear.
I usually go for the subtle approach when writing, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Woolsey was a real piece, but got better at the end. I guess this fic is in his 'bastardly' timeline.
"splendid and horrible" is quite the compliment! *grins*

1. When his friend Tommy’s twin sister grabbed him by the hand as he came out of the bathroom and pulled him away from the staircase and kissed him until he thought his head was going to explode. “You’re cute,” she giggled when she finally let him go. Backing down the hallway, still giggling, she blew him a final kiss.
Eleven-year-old John ran for the stairs.
2. “Shep, she was all over you!”
“Don’t be silly.”
“No, man, he’s right.”
“That’s ridiculous.”
“She was rubbing your back. Come on.”
“Cut it out, guys, would ya?”
“How could you not….”
“She’s my teacher“Yeah, and I bet there’s a few things she wants to teach you, all right
